New Muslim CoolPuerto Rican-American rapper Hamza P?rez pulled himself out of drug dealing and street life 12 years ago and became a Muslim. Now he's moved to Pittsburgh's tough North Side to start a new religious community, rebuild his shattered family and take his message of faith to other young people through hard-hitting hip-hop music. But when the FBI raids his mosque, Hamza must confront the realities of the post-9/11 world, and himself. New Muslim Cool takes viewers on Hamza's ride through streets, slums and jail cells; following his spiritual journey to some surprising places in an America that never stops changing.

Should Genetically Engineered Babies Be Prohibited?Imagine a world free of genetic diseases, where parents control their offspring's height, eye color and intelligence. The science may be closer than you think. Genes interact in ways that we don't fully understand and there could be unintended consequences, new diseases that result from our tinkering. But even if the science could be perfected, is it morally wrong? Would it lead to eugenics and a stratified society where only the rich enjoy the benefits of genetic enhancement? Or would the real injustice be depriving our children of every scientifically possible opportunity?duration 56:46

John Lewis Marches OnThis week, two icons of the 60's civil rights era - Bill Moyers and Rep. John Lewis (D-GA) - meet to share experiences and revelations about the momentous March on Washington which they both attended 50 years ago. Their discussion takes them to the spot in front of the Lincoln Memorial where Lewis, Martin Luther King, Jr., Bayard Rustin, Roy Wilkins, and others famously spoke about freedom and justice, creating critical momentum for both the Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act. While there, Moyers and Lewis attract the attention of schoolchildren, and conduct a spontaneous living history lesson. The March on Washington is largely remembered for King's "I Have a Dream" speech. The 23-year-old Lewis, newly named to lead the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, was the youngest of the featured speakers, but among the most defiant. Now a 14-term congressman from Georgia, Lewis shares new insight into how the event unfolded - including last-minute conflicts over his own manuscript. He also discusses the continuing challenges to racial and economic equality, and his unwavering dedication to nonviolence and brotherly love as a means toward a more just end - even when facing inevitable violence and brutality. "To look out and see the best of America convinced me more than anything else that this is the product, this is the work of the movement," Lewis tells Moyers. "Sometimes you have to not just dream about what could be - you get out and push and you pull and you preach. And you create a climate and environment to get those in high places, to get men and women of good will in power to act." Threading rarely-seen documentary footage into their conversation, Moyers - who was deputy director of the newly-created Peace Corps at the time - also shares his own memories of the day. He concludes with an essay about how the pursuit of equal rights and opportunities for all Americans - so championed at the March on Washington - continues to be thwarted.duration 56:46

Washington Week with Gwen Ifill
[#5304H]
* President Obama appears to be gearing up for yet another showdown with Congress over the federal budget. In a series of small town speeches this week, President Obama pledged to focus the rest of his time in office on helping working-class Americans. He defended his domestic policy agenda and accused Republicans of trying to undermine his efforts to bolster the economy with an "endless parade of distractions, political posturing and phony scandals." House Speaker John Boehner pushed back saying the White House wasn't offering any new ideas and that the president's speeches were "more sizzle than steak." John Harwood of CNBC and The New York Times will report on the battles that are brewing and how Americans have soured on Washington. * Last month the Supreme Court struck down a key part of the landmark Voting Rights Act aimed at preventing voter discrimination. Today, Attorney General Eric Holder reasserted the Justice Department's role in policing voting laws by asking a federal court in Texas to force that state to get pre-approval before making any redistricting changes. Republican Texas Governor Rick Perry said the move showed "utter contempt for the Constitution." Carrie Johnson of NPR will look at the other states where the Justice Department plans to take similar action to protect voters' rights. * Edward Snowden, the man who leaked top secret information on US surveillance practices, may be leaving the Moscow airport where he's been living for the past month. He's applied for political asylum in Russia to avoid facing espionage charges in the US. Martha Raddatz of ABC News will have the latest on American concerns about the intelligence Snowden still has in his possession and the growing wedge in US-Russian relations in wake of this international situation. * Plus, Molly Ball of The Atlantic will take a closer look at Anthony Weiner's bid to be mayor of New York after admitting he was involved in inappropriate online relationships with multiple women since resigning in disgrace from Congress, and how his wife has chosen to come to his defense.duration 26:46

Hawaii: Roots of FireThis documentary goes down below the Hawaiian Islands in a search for the hidden forces that drive the planet's largest and most active volcanic system. It follows earth scientists as they work among the volcanoes of the Big Island of Hawaii, pursuing clues and compiling evidence in a quest to shed new light on the mysterious inner Earth process that has been producing giant volcanoes in the middle of the Pacific Ocean for more than 75 million years. Scientists have long been puzzled over the source of the huge quantities of lava erupting out of Hawaii's massive volcanoes. Does the lava come from just below the Earth's crust? Or does it come from much deeper, perhaps even as far down as the Earth's core, some 1800 miles below the surface? The film focuses on an international team of scientists who boldly take on these key questions with a major drilling project into the flanks of Mauna Kea, Hawaii's tallest volcano. As their work progresses, another group of scientists embarks on a huge seismic study that deploys instruments on the islands and the seafloor surrounding them. After years of painstaking research, startling new discoveries are made. Not only do the scientists determine where the lava is coming from, but they solve other long-standing mysteries about the workings of Hawaii's magnificent volcanoes.duration 26:46

Yemeni migrant workers started coming to the US in the post-1965 era when the new immigration law opened the gates to non-Europeans. While most settled in the Detroit area, a small band of villagers from the mountainous Ibb region found work in the San Joaquin Valley where they tended the vineyards that produce a yearly bounty of internationally renowned table grapes. At the peak of the sojourn migration, some 5000 Yemenis were employed in the fields. Today only several hundred remain. This is their story.duration 22:28
